When Ji Shuyu came out of the hospital, He Yanzhi was leaning against the car with his arms folded. When he saw her coming out, a smile immediately appeared in his eyes.
"Sorry, something delayed me." Ji Shuyu stepped forward quickly.
"No, I arrived early." He Yanzhi looked at her dress and praised it sincerely: "It's very beautiful," and then opened the car door.
"Where's Sister Manning?"
Didn’t you say she would come too?
"She has something to do, so she'll go to the cocktail party later." He Yanzhi explained, then made a gentlemanly gesture of invitation.
As soon as Ji Shuyu got into the car, her cell phone rang. It was Gu Xiuyuan calling.
She hung up immediately and muted her phone.
Just at this moment, I suddenly remembered his sad expression and what he said: Can you please stop?
Her heart felt a little sore, and she was in a daze when He Yanzhi suddenly leaned over.
Her whole body froze and she leaned back stiffly.
Her reaction made He Yanzhi chuckle, and then he pulled the seat belt for her.
Ji Shuyu was a little embarrassed and her face turned slightly red.
Although He Yanzhi was smiling, he felt a little sad in his heart.
Although my original intention was just to help her fasten her seat belt, her reaction was really heartbreaking!
She didn't show any nervousness at all, only vigilance in her eyes...
Gu Xiuyuan walked out of the inpatient department lobby and saw the car. It was as if the blood in his body began to coagulate...
He kissed her...
His heart felt like it was being gnawed by insects, and piercing pain spread throughout his limbs. He raised his legs to chase after her, but the car started to move slowly. Just like that heavy rain, he watched Xiaoyu being taken away, but he couldn't catch up with the departing car.
…
Ji Shuyu thought that He Yanzhi just said it casually and it was just an ordinary cocktail party. But when she arrived, she found out that many famous people attended the party.
She had been with her grandmother since she was a child, and had attended many cocktail parties with Gu Xiuyuan. She was not unable to handle these situations, but the gazes from all around made her feel uncomfortable.
Maybe, because He Yanzhi is next to her!
Mu Ran once told her some things about him.
When the He family's illegitimate son ascended to power, the internal strife within the family was brutal. He Yanzhi had trampled on the He family members under his feet for five years, and now he is in charge of the He family again. It is easy to imagine how ruthless he is.
"What's wrong?" He Yanzhi asked softly, as she was not used to it.
"fine."
"I'll introduce a few friends to you later." He Yanzhi said, and then explained in case she misunderstood: "They are designers and two fashion editors."
Fashion?
She thought her target audience was "grandmothers".
Seeing what she was thinking, He Yanzhi smiled and couldn't help but rub her head.
His smile was terrifying to others.
He Yanzhi was an indifferent person. Although he wasn't the kind of fierce and cold person, this kind of unhurried and unhurried "coldness" was even more penetrating...
"Oh, sister-in-law, what a coincidence."
Hearing this voice, Ji Shuyu frowned slightly and turned around.
He Yanzhi glanced at him, and Shen Baiyao immediately restrained himself.
Ji Shuyu was a little surprised that she saw Li Ya'an.
"An An?"
"Xiao Yu!"
When the two of them met an acquaintance from a circle that did not belong to them, they seemed to breathe more smoothly instantly, as if they had finally met their relatives.
"Why are you here?"
Compared to Li Ya'an, Ji Shuyu was even more surprised.
How could she be with Shen Baiyao?
Seeing her thoughts, Li Ya'an gritted his teeth helplessly: "My boss."
Hearing her gnashing tone, Shen Baiyao raised his eyebrows in pleasure, then looked at Ji Shuyu.
"Sister-in-law, I want to talk to Yanzhi. Lend me him for a few minutes." After saying that, he pulled the man away.
Ji Shuyu felt helpless about his address.
She heard He Yanzhi's warning, but Shen Baiyao seemed not to care. He even turned around and called out loudly: "Sister-in-law," attracting all the guests to look over here.
Ji Shuyu was tired and didn't want to attract attention, so she pulled Li Ya'an aside.
"Hey, is that Mr. Gu's sister? Mr. He brought her to the dinner. Does that mean he's officially admitting it?"
"Admit it?" Another laughed. "Everyone in Yuncheng knows that Young Master Gu and Young Master Shen are at odds. Tsk tsk... a sadomasochistic relationship."
"Don't get along? I think they are like water and fire! I heard it's because Master Shen and Master Fu are not on good terms."
The voices on the other end were quite loud, and it seemed they had no intention of being shy. However, when they mentioned Mr. Fu, Li Ya'an froze for a moment.
Ji Shuyu didn't know much about Li Ya'an and Fu Shengkai's affairs, but after listening to their conversation, she began to worry about Li Ya'an.
"Don't worry, I'm fine." Li Ya'an smiled when he saw her worry. "Aside from his mental state, he doesn't have any other shortcomings."
"Yo~ Are you praising me?"
When the voice sounded, the person was already behind them.
Just a few minutes, it really is just a few minutes!
Li Ya'an immediately held his forehead, as if he had a terrible headache.
"Xiaoyu, I'll take you over to meet some friends."
He Yanzhi said this while glaring at his friend warning him not to mess around.
Shen Baiyao didn't care and continued to call her "little sister-in-law" and "little sister-in-law". This made the people around him more convinced of Ji Shuyu and He Yan's relationship.
Knowing that he did it on purpose, Ji Shuyu just wanted to stay away from him immediately.
"An An, I'll come find you later." Ji Shuyu said with some worry, "Be careful when you put something in your mouth, okay?"
Li Ya'an felt warm in his heart, and then nodded, "Don't worry! I know my limits."
Ji Shuyu was taken by He Yanzhi to meet some friends, and Ke Manning also arrived. With her around, Ji Shuyu's nervous mood relaxed a little.
He Yanzhi brought someone with him, and even if it was just a nice polite compliment, Ji Shu had to give him a few compliments, which Ji Shu was not used to.
"Don't be nervous, just think of it as getting to know each other," Ke Manning reassured him. "It will also be a great connection in the future."
Ji Shuyu nodded.
Maybe... she doesn't have any big ambitions! She just sees this as a job, not a passionate dream.
The topic started from design and fashion, and soon turned to the latest gossip in the entertainment industry.
Someone teased He Yanzhi, saying that with their status, they were coveted by countless people who wanted to take shortcuts, and asked him to be careful. They also talked about how someone's daughter had sex in the bathroom a few days ago.
The topic seemed to have taken on a certain color without anyone noticing.
Ji Shuyu looked embarrassed and left under the pretext of going to the restroom, but as soon as she turned around, she bumped into a guest holding a glass of red wine.
"Sorry, sorry..."
He Yanzhi frowned at him, and Ji Shuyu quickly said, "It's okay, I'll just change it."
Ke Manning was pulled by a designer, but Ji Shuyu didn't ask her to accompany her and went upstairs to change her dress by herself.
The red color was quite eye-catching, and looking at herself in the mirror, she felt a little unfamiliar.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw someone coming into the lounge.
The tall figure was a man's. She panicked instantly, but before her fear could ferment, the man was already behind her.
It’s Gu Xiuyuan!!
“You… um…”
Before she could even utter a sound, she was thrown against the wall, her lips blocked, and the next second he reached out to pull her clothes off...
